Anyone know the part name/number for the part that secures the full size spare in the PIU

[Chickensandwich]

As the title says, I need to find on of these since my spare isn’t secured and bumps and bangs all over when I drive.

From what I understand the spare in the PIU is in a different spot than the standard Explorer? Anyway, I’m trying to find one of these but don’t have a part number or name for it. It’s the the part that screws down to secure the tire in place.

Have you checked the various parts sites like Shop For Parts By Year | Auto Nation Ford White Bear Lake

Is this what you're looking for?

I haven’t because I don’t know what to actually search for. Like, tire screwy thingy?

Could be. Does that screw in to the threaded stud in the trunk to secure the tire? It looks like it could be it

That I'm not should about but seeing as it is a retainer, it must screw onto something. I eventually found it looking at the "rear floor pan" and going from there. I didn't know the name either.

I wasn’t sure if it was different from the standard Explorer either. My dealership has been less than helpful in identifying parts too. Thanks!
